    A supermajority of animal feed comes from the waste product of crops we that were being grown anyway

    According to the Alberta Cattle Feeders Association, 80% of the feed is composed of corn. According to the USDA itself half the corn grown in the US was used for animal feed, and 78% of the world’s soy production is made for animal feed.
    Is the waste product of corn and soy included in these numbers?
